New Horizons

We’ll start by saying a big THANK YOU again to everyone who’s supported us in any way over the last couple of years. We were delighted to get the Horizon Award at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards this year and the impact we have been fortunate enough to make on the folk scene is down to all the people who keep booking us, supporting our gigs, buying albums and supporting our activities in many other ways. You are all stars!

It's here!

Our brand new album The Call will be released officially on the 1st July 2014. You’ll be able to get Pre-order copies from our website before that date and we’ll let you know when they become available.

Its been two years since our last release, The Queen’s Lover and so we are delighted to be able to announce the release of this album. Once more we have worked with Fellside Records and we are all very pleased with how it’s sounding. The sound remains essentially the two of us, but this time we have also enlisted the help of a few other musicians – they’ve helped us create the exact sound we wanted.

The Launch Gig

As we have a new album, we thought we’d have an album launch on Saturday 28th June 2014 in Chester. Would you like to come? It’ll be a really fun evening and we’re fortunate to have our good friend, the wonderful Luke Jackson as our very special guest performer. We’ll be performing songs from the new album as well as a few old favourites.

The venue is Chester Music Theatre The Old Chapel, Tarvin Road, Boughton, Chester, Cheshire CH3 5DZ

We are doing a live gig at The Theatre Royal in Workington on Wednesday 25th June 2014. The gig will be video recorded (12 Cameras!) and then made into a Live DVD by Fellside Recordings which we’ll then have available to sell. Should you wish to come to the gig, you can find all the venue information and buy tickets HERE.

And of course…

As always, come to the gigs (up-to date list on the web site), say hello, follow us on social media, and we’ll be in touch soon to let you know when you can order and receive Pre-Release copies of The Call.
Cheers!
